The Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam (PTCE) samples your knowledge and skill base for activities performed in the work of pharmacy technicians. Each question is carefully written, referenced, and validated to determine its accuracy and correctness.

PTCB develops, maintains, promotes and administers a high-quality certification and recertification program for pharmacy technicians. The PTCB provides first-rate programs and services that offer pharmacy technicians an opportunity to demonstrate that they have mastered knowledge and skills across practice settings.

There are two parts to being a Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT). First, pharmacy technicians must sit for and pass the national PTCE. Once a pharmacy technician has passed the exam, he or she may use the designation of CPhT. Second, to continue to hold certification, a CPhT is required to obtain twenty hours of continuing education for recertification within two years of original certification or previous recertification.

The PTCE contains 125 multiple-choice questions plus an additional 15 non-scored questions, for a total of 140 questions. The 15 additional non-scored questions are pre-test questions and are not used in calculating your score. The pre-test questions provide statistical information for possible use on future examinations; this information is vital in building a quality test. The pre-test questions are randomly placed throughout the exam. Candidates are encouraged to answer all questions.

Each exam question provides four choices, with only ONE designated as the correct or best answer. The questions from the three functions tested are distributed randomly throughout the total exam. It is to your advantage to answer every question on the exam since the final score is based on the total number of questions answered correctly. You will have three hours to complete the national PTCE.
